I never went to that church, but I like the fact they are keeping it up for memories.

Oh, yeah, I meant Arson. I kinda forgot what it was called, but I was close! Yeah they say there was two locations of the source of the fire, one upstairs and one downstairs.

“Arsenal”? Is that another spelling of arson or just the name of a specific group?

He admitted freely that he did it.
Written by iowaboomer about 1 year ago.

Yes, supposedly he did. But he has not been tried yet, so we must assume he is innocent. God will be the final judge. Thanks for the comment.

This was a deliberate act. The man that set this fire was found to have anti-christian “things” in his home.

I was walking home from my boyfriends when I saw the smoke coming from downtown. I was scared, thinking maybe my mom’s building was on fire, so I ran home and woke her up at about 4 in the morning.. it was pretty scary.
